What is kinetic energy?
The energy stored in an object due to its position.
The energy an object has because of its motion.
The energy that is lost when an object stops moving.
The energy that can be created or destroyed.
Which of the following factors does NOT affect the amount of kinetic energy an object has?
The object's mass.
The object's speed.
The object's color.
The object's direction of motion.
If a bowling ball has a mass of 5 kg and is moving at a speed of 2 m/s, what happens to its kinetic energy if the speed doubles?
It remains the same.
It doubles.
It quadruples.
It halves.
Which of the following scenarios best illustrates the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy?
A car parked on a hill.
A book sitting on a shelf.

How does the mass of an object affect its kinetic energy when the speed is constant?
The kinetic energy decreases as mass increases.
The kinetic energy is independent of mass.
The kinetic energy increases as mass increases.
The kinetic energy is inversely proportional to mass.
Which of the following is an example of energy transfer?
A stationary ball on a table.

What happens to the kinetic energy of a bowling ball when it hits the pins?
It is destroyed.
It is transferred to the pins.
It remains in the ball.
It is converted into potential energy.
Which of the following statements is true about energy in the universe?
Energy can be created and destroyed.

Energy can be transferred or stored but not created or destroyed.
If two objects have the same mass but different speeds, how does their kinetic energy compare?
The object with the higher speed has more kinetic energy.
The object with the lower speed has more kinetic energy.
Both objects have the same kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy is not affected by speed.
What is the role of a turbine in a dam?
To store potential energy.
To convert kinetic energy into mechanical energy.
To create energy from nothing.
